I had a similar problem some time ago with the original engine and then one day out running errands, it wouldn't start at all. Towed it home, replaced the fuel filter, still no fire. Looked under the front at the crank position sensor and had a broken wire. It's possible you could have dirty spots on the crank and the sensor can't read. Try spraying it down and cleaning the crank pulley and area.

 

It isn't cranking at all.

 

So I know I haven't updated this in a while. I have been super busy with work, and it has been cold. I have been trying to figure out 2 issues. I have been going through about a gallon of coolant a week and an intermittent no crank issue. So I finally gave up trying to trouble shoot it. I took it to a reputable shop near me that I have gone to before. Turns out that the issues are related. The intake manifold is leaking coolant out the back. Which is leaking all over the wiring and the neutral safety switch, which they believe is causing the no start. So its is $794 to replace the gaskets. and then we go from there. Once I get it running and I recover from emptying my bank account I will start updating more often.

 

I haven't gotten a lot done the past few days because I just had my wisdom teeth cut out and i have been on pain killers. However I did get an order of Bravada ***** in from a user on S10forum.com and I installed them today. No real how to needs to be done, just pull the old ones off and put the new ones on.

old


new

I think they look way better.

 

I was looking over your thread and didn't realize you live in Pa until I saw the Pinchot Park pictures haha.. I live in York

 

Like the look of those new *****. And had to laugh at the last post. I live in Indiana, Pa. looks like you got some PA guys watching your build.

 

I am about an hour from Pinchot Park.

 

For the last couple of days i have been having less and less power but no Check engine light. This morning any time the engine got to around 2k rpm it would stumble and almost stall. I can't get above 40 mph unless I am going down hill. When I was coming down the road to my office I decided to floor it. That triggered a PO339, PO339P, & PO410P code. I am running low on patience with the issues on this vehicle.

 

Clogged cat maybe

 

The cat is the first thing that came to my mind as well!
